Hmmmm...thats pretty hot, are you putting the sensor in between the heatsink and the Golden Orb?

This is a no-no as far as good cooling goes. That would account for the rather high temperatures youre getting, and the poor cooling performance of the Gorb. You need the interface between the Gorb and the chip to be as flush as possible, free of obstructions.

It's kinda unlikely to find a spot where the sensor can show something "to hot"...think about it for a minute...the hottest part of the cpu is what you are supposed to measure...so put it next to the blue core but make sure the sink sits level afterwards...and has some thermal paste...

In the process of removing the case from my K700 and attaching the HS/F combo I put the probe between both heat sinks and screwed it up, went tp Radio Shack and bought a thermister for a $1.99, soldered it in and it works as well as factory. With the plastic case removed I put the probe between the heat sink and core, and have same results as with ome.

behind these i have put my temps according to the bios..
If i put the sensor on something else(something colder) the system2 temp changes in stead of the cpu temp..
So i found out that my actually temp(which the sensor reads) is displayed as the system2 temp!!

how do i change that? and has on die got something to do with this(some on board sensor)?

Well...all cumines have a on-die sensor...so try removing the cable sensor completely, and make sure you sink sits ABSOLUTELY flat on the core...and get some thermal paste...if that helps then you problem is that the sensor makes the sink mount unevenly...find another mounting point..if not either the sensor if bad or your cpu is a very hot one indeed...
